Alarm systems - CCTV surveillance systems for use in security applications - Part 1: System requirements

Scope

This European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for CCTV Surveillance Systems installed for security applications. This European Standard specifies the minimum performance requirements and functional requirements to be agreed on between customer and supplier in the operational requirement, but does not include requirements for design, planning, installation, testing, operation or maintenance (see Application Guidelines in EN 50132-7:1996). This European Standard excludes installation of remotely monitored detector activated CCTV systems. This European Standard also applies to CCTV Systems sharing means of detection, triggering, interconnection, control, communication and power supplies with other applications. The operation of a CCTV System shall not be adversely influenced by other applications. Requirements are specified for CCTV components where the relevant environment is classified. This classification describes the environment in which the CCTV component may be expected to operate as designed. When the requirements of the four environmental classes are inadequate, due to the extreme conditions experienced in certain geographic locations, special national conditions may be applied.
